The 'old guard' says these are wackos not grounded in science. The mavericks say the old guard will unfairly and vehemently attack and ignore any scientific evidence that challenges their existing paradigms. You are an 'old guard' type and I have sympathies for the efforts of the mavericks. And on and on that goes,,,, But anyway my point is just that I do not personally claim to know the truth on this particular issue but it is not just something to call crazy Glen Beck stuff if it has gotten this much attention.

In general someone saying you are wrong should not be the end of things. The accused deserve the right to respond don't you think? I've noticed multiple times now your use of the word 'lied' seems inappropriate to me (unless you claim he consciously knows what he is presenting is false which would be a more serious accusation than just being wrong or overzealous).

You can't carbon date stone, the Adena used waddle and daub not sod bricks and no giant skeletons have ever been found. Ever. I've been on hundreds of sites, examined thousands of artifacts and skeletons. read hundreds of reports. The only "theories" I ever toyed with was the Younger Dryas Impact. I was out to prove it and become famous. I helped disprove it. Then I toyed with the Solutrean Theory, but genetics completely disproved it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to read his responses too. But from the looks of his record he's never been on a Adena-Middlesex dig. Most digs depend on volunteers and college students. You would think he would go to one if he was so interested. Another thing I did help prove was the Adena "Skinwalker-Nightwalker" Society was the origins for the Nanticoke-Lenape one and that the Kentucky "Wolfman" skeleton was real. I helped find 2 more skeletons with the modified jaws. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don’t know if he defended himself. So you don’t have any evidence that he consciously lied. Those were my points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it's a hoax. Christians venerate the 10 Commandments. To the Jews, the 10 Commandments are the chapter titles of the book of laws... there are 613 Commandments. They have no special regard for the 10 Commandments. Any time you see "ancient Jewish" and "10 Commandments" you know it's a fraud. The menorah... absolutely. Genuine symbol of the Jewish people dating from the time of the Maccabees (but not before). As a culture there are a number of other representations that show up wherever the ancient Hebrews lived -- Seal of Solomon (or other powers), lions, etc... that's all authentic. But no genuine ancient artifact from the Jewish people has the 10 Commandments on it. That just wasn't a "thing" for them.

Not really, good solid evidence is a result of a process whereby anyone willing to do so with an open mind and no prior bias can repeat the process and reach the same conclusions. That, for example, is where the Ancient Astronaut people fall down, they show evidence that other people can attribute with the same level of possibility and as the result of the same train of thought to aliens where others say man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is too vague a statement. Everybody says those things about the other side and the truth is more complicated in about every case and requires us to do homework. And usually it involves too a discussion of what 'exactly' was said in what context, etc.. Of course nobody should state their opinions as facts without the qualifiers and perhaps clarification that they are stating a theory (and not yet fact). As for the 'shies away' part if we are talking about Jim Vieira, there is no sign that he won't address any question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still want to know if it was indeed found in such and such a place instead of just taking the attitude that it has to be a fraud. I understand it could be a fraud but I want more certainty than 'it just can't be because it doesn't belong in our current paradigm of America's past'.
